Chris Weston reveals a jaw-dropping ‘Nosferatu’ poster

Chris Weston doesn’t blog that often — the perils of working more and more in a business where your projects are accompanied by non-disclosure agreements — but he recently posted a big update featuring art he’s created for his own amusement, some commissions and convention sketches, and some recent 2000AD covers finally seen without intrusive trade dress.

The Nosferatu piece is a good example of the insanely complicated rendering Weston can bury in the background of an image, unnoticed at first glance. Hundreds of rats, thousands of bricks, each one hand drawn. And that’s before we even get to the ornate etching on the ship or the likeness of Max Schreck. Really, I’m dumbstruck by this.

These are amazing! One thing that always puzzled me about the recent vampire fad: why weren’t there any Nosferatu comics? Weston is just the sort of artist needed to correct this oversight. Get on it, sir!
